Ingredients Explained

These ingredients are found in both products.

Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.

Skin Conditioning, Solvent

Water. It's the most common cosmetic ingredient of all. You'll usually see it at the top of ingredient lists, meaning that it makes up the largest part of the product.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Did not live up with the hype I've seen all over TikTok.
I wanted to love it as I heard great things about it for acne prone skin, but it literally did nothing to me even when i used it for four months (2 bottles).
Once I stopped using it, my skin became better.

Very good at targeting redness and irritations. Whenever my skin feels irritated, either from treatments or using products with Tretinoin and Hydroquinone, or is experiencing Rosacea flare-ups, applying one or more layers of this toner noticeably reduces redness - sometimes it even disappears completely, depending on the severity.

I usually am cautios with hyped products, they tend to set you Show more

I love this spray. I use it morning and night and periodically during the day if I’ve gotten extra sweaty. I also spray it on my pillows and bring it when traveling to spray whatever I lay my head on. It has consistently helped my acne more than any other product. The only downside is that it smells like a pool but that smell quickly goes away when it’s dried.

I’ve seen a great improvement in my skin after the first couple uses. Just an fyi, since hypochlorous acid is chlorine dissolved in water, it does have a choline smell, but when it dries, the smell goes away.
